At 80-90 psi, roughly how loud is it's operation?

I would say you could speak over it fairly easily. . Not as loud s the air compressor that runs it. That's about as close as I can give you

I have run it on as little as 50 psi. However, it nseems to work best at anywhere between 80 and 110 psi.

It does make some noise when running but is much quieter than previous units I have owned. I would estimate between 40 and 60 decibels when operating

Mine is not quiet, but it's certainly not offensive. Sounds like most any pump machine.

Not loud at all. I have it on the ceiling in my basement workshop, and I do not wear hearing protection. Even on highest speed it is quiet.

I don't find it excessively loud. It's a gas powered motor after all . I just know it works great and have had no problems with it .

It's not overly loud, but it's definitely higher pitched than a regular fan. I run a regular fan at night anyway, so I barely hear it.

seems to have been answered already, but this is louder than my old pumpmaster 760 or my daisy powerline 880. so loud, in fact, that i do not shoot it in the backyard. bummer too, cuz that is why i got it.

I have 150psi on board air system with a regulator that keeps 110psi to the horns. Once pressure gets below 90psi you can start hearing a difference in sound.

It's open design, so the motor is right in front of you. I would say it's above 100 db when it's running. Louder than my Bosch 4100 for sure.

It is fairly loud on high. I use it in a workout room and have to turn up the TV volume. However, I rarely use it on high since it pushes a lot of air. The sound level on medium and low is not unreasonable.

Because I had nothing better to do just now I measured it with my sound pressure meter. It is between 76 and 77 dB C weighted at 1 foot. In other words, not super loud. About the same as what you might hear from a UPS unit on your computer when the power goes out. Then again when the power goes out the house gets pretty quiet so it is easy to hear a floor away.

Its not a consideration. It's not as loud as my himidifier, not as loud as the air circulating through my ductwork, not as loud as the AC. I might put it on par with, I dont know what. I actually didn't notice the noise so I can't recall. I guess it can't be that loud.

Its not very loud at all, I wish I had a decibel meter to answer you properly, but I will say you hear more of a "whoosh" from the air moving than anything. It also depends on the setting because while none of the settings are loud by OTR vent standards, the lowest setting is very soft. We've never had to yell to converse with one another even on the highest (loudest) setting. I hope this helps.

It is somewhat loud. The higher the setting, the louder. I use it in my garage and it works well.

It is actually not loud. It is probably less than a toilet flush. It's pretty powerful also. It saved my basement from total annihilation .
